Lovely, inviting house
Extremely clean and well thought out. There were so many little things that were thought of like; spare batteries, pantry staples, crayons etc. we were surprised at how well this accommodated all our needs. The only thing I would say is that the pool was always cold even though it was over 30 degrees when we were there so we didn’t mind. It is such a beautiful and welcoming house that I would recommend it to everyone

Fantastic
Thanks for having the opportunity to stay in your lovely house it was awesome! We had a great time! The place is well equipped, very tidy and entertaining! Unfortunately not having locks on bathroom and toilet doors created some embarrassing moments as we were in a group and not just family. But overall we love the place and had a very relaxing break from our busy and tight schedule! Will definitely come back for longer stay!😍

Beautiful home with all the amenities you could want
The owner has put a lot of thought into the set up of this house. It has everything you could want in a home away from home, and more! The pool was gorgeous! The kitchen had every appliance you could want. The pantry was well stocked. There was an abundant supply of everything. I just loved the generosity and thoughtfulness throughout the house. My main recommendation would be to put up blockout blinds in the hallway because there is too much light and heat coming into the house in the mornings. As there is no air conditioning in bedrooms 2 and 3, this becomes an issue because you can't sleep with the door open to help with air flow or cooling from the air conditioner in the living space on hot days. Overall, we would highly recommend this property.
